Orbitals and Onimusha Lead Famitsu’s August 2026 Scores
Famitsu’s weekly scores for the week of August 23, 2026 list Orbitals at 35/40, Onimusha: Way of the Sword at 34/40, The Blood of Dawnwalker at 34/40, Afterlove EP at 30/40, Asdivine Knot at 28/40, and John Fox at 23/40 based on four editors each. Orbitals earns praise for its retro 1980s anime visuals, detailed direction, and engaging two‑player co-op; Onimusha: Way of the Sword is lauded for modernized swordplay, parry/deflect mechanics, the Issen technique, accessible controls, and Switch 2 motion controls, with a minor nitpick that cutscenes can slow combat pacing.
